From what you are describing it sounds like you are doing things correctly. Are you providing it with a password? Also when you reopen it, what happens if you press Ctrl-E?

This behavior was reported to R&D (CAR# 128657) and fixed in LabVIEW 8.6.1. The work around for locking a VI in LabVIEW 8.6 is to save the VI with password.
Saving the password may have appeared to not function for you because LabVIEW caches passwords after you apply or enter them on a development machine. LabVIEW will remember passwords in the cache until you clear the password cache either by exiting LabVIEW or manually clearing the cache in the LabVIEW opt...

I understand you don't want to lock it, but unfortunatly that's out only solution short of installing 8.6.1.
